22 4e1b0253f71a Renamed project to "Gutentags" (thanks Sylvain!). Ludovic Chabant <ludovic@chabant.com> parents: 20 diff changeset	39 Gutentags is a plugin that takes care of the much needed management of tags

22 4e1b0253f71a Renamed project to "Gutentags" (thanks Sylvain!). Ludovic Chabant <ludovic@chabant.com> parents: 20 diff changeset	44 In order to generate tag files, Gutentags will have to figure out what's in
4 512eaa56c7db First pass at documentation. Ludovic Chabant <ludovic@chabant.com> parents: 0 diff changeset	45 your project. To do this, it will locate well-known project root markers like
512eaa56c7db First pass at documentation. Ludovic Chabant <ludovic@chabant.com> parents: 0 diff changeset	46 SCM folders (.git, .hg, etc.), any custom tags you define (with
22 4e1b0253f71a Renamed project to "Gutentags" (thanks Sylvain!). Ludovic Chabant <ludovic@chabant.com> parents: 20 diff changeset	47 \|gutentags_project_root\|), and even things you may have defined already with

22 4e1b0253f71a Renamed project to "Gutentags" (thanks Sylvain!). Ludovic Chabant <ludovic@chabant.com> parents: 20 diff changeset	50 If the current file you're editing is found to be in such a project, Gutentags
4 512eaa56c7db First pass at documentation. Ludovic Chabant <ludovic@chabant.com> parents: 0 diff changeset	51 will make sure the tag file for that project is up to date. Then, as you work
512eaa56c7db First pass at documentation. Ludovic Chabant <ludovic@chabant.com> parents: 0 diff changeset	52 in files in that project, it will partially re-generate the tag file. Every
512eaa56c7db First pass at documentation. Ludovic Chabant <ludovic@chabant.com> parents: 0 diff changeset	53 time you save, it will silently, in the background, update the tags for that

22 4e1b0253f71a Renamed project to "Gutentags" (thanks Sylvain!). Ludovic Chabant <ludovic@chabant.com> parents: 20 diff changeset	56 Usually, ctags can only append tags to an existing tag file, so Gutentags
4 512eaa56c7db First pass at documentation. Ludovic Chabant <ludovic@chabant.com> parents: 0 diff changeset	57 removes the tags for the current file first, to make sure the tag file is
512eaa56c7db First pass at documentation. Ludovic Chabant <ludovic@chabant.com> parents: 0 diff changeset	58 always consistent with the source code.

22 4e1b0253f71a Renamed project to "Gutentags" (thanks Sylvain!). Ludovic Chabant <ludovic@chabant.com> parents: 20 diff changeset	60 Also, Gutentags is clever enough to not stumble upon itself by triggering

7 49e3cb99ab27 Small edits. Ludovic Chabant <ludovic@chabant.com> parents: 4 diff changeset	64 There are some similar Vim plugins out there ("vim-tags", "vim-autotag",

512eaa56c7db First pass at documentation. Ludovic Chabant <ludovic@chabant.com> parents: 0 diff changeset	74 * Keep the tag file consistent: don't just append the current file's tags to
